Downton Abbey Hurt Me Deeply

From the blog deblite@blogspot.com:

"I initially felt that the fans were over-reacting. I felt this episode was akin to an All in the Family episode where Edith Bunker was raped.
I felt Downton Abbey had been shocking but I didn't think the episode
went to far, especially in an age where brutal, gorey murder and the
resulting autopsies are a nightly television staple and Law and Order SVU has shown much worse. It never dawned on me until just now that Edith managed to escape her attacker.
